Yeah, from what I understand, he said he was going to buy it, then changed his mind, then the shareholders sued him because I guess there was a tentative deal.
Just shows me that Elon doesn't know what the hell he's doing, so spez looks up to him now? Yeah, I'm lost too.
He didn't just say he was going to buy it, he signed a legally binding contract and waived his right to back out of the deal, and then tried to anyway lmao, what a fucking dumbass child man

The board sued because the insane price he proposed was a much better monetary outcome for shareholders than waiting for Twitter itself to become profitable. But was a much worse outcome for its employees, users, and the rest of us....
Gonna go ahead and say that this is the BEST outcome for the rest of us. Employees and vendors for Twitter got the short end of the straw, but society as a whole would be blessed if Twitter went the way of the Dodo bird.
